Also, where's this Colapinto been the last year-or-so? Really great stuff from him this weekend

Well, Red Bull, talk about fixing your car.

this will affect audi's tyre life

piastri's performance trend since mid 2025 needs to be studied

bortoleto's (likely) DSQ is definitely one of the weirder technical infringements I've seen

also hot take wrt regulations: I think the yo-yo racing was always going to die sooner or later once teams figured out the energy deployment meta, the divergence in strategies are what created that style of racing

Cadillac genuinely taking the fight to Williams was also really cool for Cadillac, and really fucking embarrassing for Williams

also good god this track fucking sucks

Genuinely surprised by how weak Mercedes were, it's not like the other 3 teams around them just got a second quicker suddenly (Alpine really weren't that far behind)

Also Antonelli's just beaten Russell in a straight dogfight and I think that's important

Not enough laps for Leclerc to capitalise on McLaren's tyres dying (which they really are, the gap is like 4-5 tenths in S2)

Rest in peace to the great Alex Zanardi. Two-time Champ Car Champion, Four-time Paralympic Gold Medalist and a hero to us all.

also I think the go weeyums hamster is a dessicated corpse at this point, deeply unserious team

my hot take for the actual race is that McLaren don't have the tyre management to back this one up, but it's still a pretty solid performance

so with the caveat that Miami is a very energy rich track, that was a pretty good quali

''6 7'' - jolyon palmer

My only conclusion here is that the Red Bull genuinely looked quite a bit better than it has so far. I'll give you Mercedes still being quickest for free.

That sure was practice

btw don't do a 3 day convention (with rave!), a regular (but weirdly intense) work week and a 3 day visit to disney paris back to back. this will kill you

Stefano Domenicali can still step up on Lego though. Seldom have I seen a better example of the condescending corpo ghoul

since F1 is back my Nuanced Take is that the racing is pretty good and fun, superclipping is an... earsore?, and qualifying is complete and total fucking dogshit

this is the sickest thing ever, bless guintoli

shoutout to marquez talking about his opening phase weaknesses om this ducati

was forced to listen to a song by The Smiths in the car earlier so unfortunately I must now seek euthanasia

this is total chaos

saw project hail mary yesterday, fantastic movie that moved me to tears several times. big recommend

got offered a really cool job that I'd really like to have except it arbitrarily pays €800 less because the police academy here rarely takes on neurodivergent people and they can't offer me a higher paying function as a consequence

looking at my pictures from saturday night in absolute awe about the fact that thats, like, me, and not someone i'm deeply jealous of

someone saying Kirkwood would be putting up a better fight for the title if Andretti wasn't so shit on strategy and operations yeah if the first 4 times Palou beat their asses didn't wake them up to that, I'm not sure what will

I take devious delight in O'Ward being overtaken by Palou simply because you *know* O'Ward frequently seethes over the fact he isn't Palou

Scott Redding continues to be a piece of shit I see

i love nighttime cons

I once saw someone on a discord server I run argue that space programmes are a waste of resources as they generate no tangible economic benefits and that really stuck with me

race day sorta

it is so liberating to order swimwear that actually suits my gender

"superclipping" breaking F1 fanbase lexicon containment is really funny to me

Something about MotoGP discussions that frustrates me a little bit is that people really think 2027 will be some total reset, mainly in conversations around Quartararo and Martin

Shocked that Mike Krack was allowed to be critical of the God-Emperor's flawless chassis, honestly

if that F1 viewership figure post on the other website is true (I have not verified it myself yet) that's a big oof

actually this might be a covid/stomach ulcer recurrence double feature whatever it is, i want to be released from this mortal coil

fuckkkkkkk

not food poisoning, covid

It's just not O'Ward's season, is it.

Food poisoning time

Also, given CotA is Marquez land and he just hasn't really looked his usual self here, I choose to believe this really is Aprilia's year

Excellent sprint there.

''plex alou'' ''flint lockwood'' ''stop ordering doordash and pick your poleman''

watching indycar's international feed is worth it for the between-session banter alone

I think I'm just after some meaning to the action and right now there isn't really much substance to latch on to. Bad reliability makes everything from the top 4 down feel really random and I'm just not digging it that much.

(this is not a subtweet... skeet... whatever, if you can read this chances are you're not the type of person I'm talking about.)
